Most of the ideas that can be used and seem to have been used are in advertising. Advertisements are an easy from of finding rhetoric because the purpose of the most ad's are to get you to buy a product or use something which means you have to be persuaded. I posted an article on Spanglish I think that with the increasing numbers of hispanics in America a lot of the advertisements will start to use Spanglish to try and persuade many of the Spanish and English bi-lingual group that is constantly increasing in population. These types of advertisements can already be seen on some television commercials on stations like Univision and Galavision.
